You're Throwing a Good Love Away (Single Version) - The Spinners

Need I say I love you? Need I say I care? Need I say that emotions, Are something we don't share? I don't want to be sitting here, Trying to deceive you Cuz you know I know baby That I don't wanna go We can not live together We can not live apart And that's the situation We've known it from the start Every time that I look at you, I can see the future Cuz you know I know baby That I don't wanna go Just throwing it all away Throwing it all away Is there nothing that I can say, To make you change your mind? I watch the world go round & round And see mine turnin' upside down Throwing it all away Now who will light up your darkness? And who will hold your hand? Who will find you the answers, When you don't understand? Why should I have to be the one, Who has to convince you? Cuz you know I know baby, That I don't wanna go Then some day you'll be sorry Some day when you're free Memories will remind you, That our love was meant to be But late at night when you call my name, The only sound you'll hear Is the sound of your voice calling, Calling out to me Just throwing it all away Throwing it all away And there's nothing that I can say Hey... We're throwing it all away Just a throwing it all away Just a throwing it all away

In a world like today It's a rare occasion to be able To see young mothers like the ones That were around when I grew up But they live on in memory To quite a few of us And this song is dedicated To those who cherish that memory Early one Sunday morning Breakfast was on the table There was no time to eat She said to me, "Boy, hurry to Sunday school" Filled with her load of glory We learned the holy story She'll always have her dreams Despite the things this troubled world can bring Oh, Sadie Don't you know we love you Sweet Sadie Place no one above you Sweet Sadie (well, well, well) Living in the past Some times it seems so funny But no money will turn your life around Sweeter than cotton candy Stronger than papa's old brandy Always that needed smile Once in awhile she would break down and cry Some times she'd be so happy Just being with us and daddy Standing the worst of times Breaking the binds with just a simple song Oh, Sadie (oh, Sadie, baby) Don't you know we love you (she'll love us all in a special way) Sweet Sadie (well, well, well) Place no one above you Sweet Sadie (sweet Sadie livin' in the past) Living in the past Oh, she's never sinnin' In love she's always winnin, yeah Sadie (My, my, my, my, my) Don't you know we love you (I love you, mama) Sweet Sadie Place no one above you (I just can't forget) Sweet Sadie (how you gave me love, oh, Lord) Living in the past If there's a heaven up above I know she's teaching angels how to love Sadie (It's a mean world without you) Don't you know we love you Sweet Sadie (all the love you showed) Place no one above you (oh, I could never, ever doubt her lovely word) Sweet Sadie Living in the past Ain't it funny that in the end it's not money It's just the love you gave us all
